This is the Maestro card, and is not yet supported by the provided drivers.
There is a commercial sound driver, but it is not yet worth having IMHO as it requires
you to first initialise the card in Windows and then load linux via loadlin.

Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
My boss just ordered our first server for our small office (6 users).
When it arrives we will be adding a tape drive to it. The box itself is
a Dell (10GB HD) with RH 6.0 loaded. Could someone offer up suggestions
on what would be our best bet as far as particular brand (so as to make
installation easier on me - a linux newbie) and also backup software (I
am leaning towards BRU).
TIA,
Phil Buckley

Just /boot. And only if you have a BIOS that can't handle larger
drives.
The big deal is that LILO has to be able to read the entire contents of
/boot. Since the usual device drivers have not yet loaded at that
point, /boot must be accessible via your ROM BIOS (either your
motherboard BIOS or an extension BIOS, like the one on a bootable SCSI
host adapter.)
The original BIOS calls for disk access reserved 10 bits for the
cylinder number - so it can't be used to access cylinders beyond 1023.
(There are 24 bits total for specifying sectors, which is where the 8G
limit comes from, BTW.)
Most BIOS chips will translate the disk's geometry from its physical
layout to one that has 1024 or fewer cylinders. This is how the
so-called "512M barrier" was broken a few years ago.
Modern BIOS chips (those that can support drives greater than 8G) have a
new set of calls for accessing disk sectors, which has a larger limit.
LILO uses BIOS calls to access /boot and read in the initial system
image. It must, because no device drivers have yet been loaded.
If LILO uses these new calls (does it? I don't know), then systems with
the new BIOS calls will have no problem with /boot anywhere on the
disk. If LILO doesn't use these calls (or if your system doesn't have
them), then /boot must be in a partition contained entirely within the
first 1024 cylinders - where the BIOS can access it.
This is the same problem every other PC-based operating system faces.
The boot loader (NT's OS-loader, OS/2's boot-manager, Win95's boot
sector, etc) must use the BIOS to access the disk, and whatever
partition it reads to fetch the initial system image must be accessible
via the BIOS calls it makes.

I'm only aware of one NUMA Octa-Xenon design, and it's not
clear the prototype will be finished and taken to market.
I suspect there is at least one more in the same shape.
Most of the Octa and greater PPro people are betting on
IA64, which has left them without a good X86 transition
MP product since the PPro's are pretty doggy by todays standard.
Big Iron X86 companies like Sequent must be really hurting
with dual PII/PIII systems closing the gap.
If IA64 is delayed much longer, I think we might see some
fast Quad/Octa PIII's developed and released.

Probably, since -15 means RedHat only made changes to fix their own
compatibility issues. The problem only manifested itself on very
specific hardware, though... I believe :)

There is one more option, "make menuconfig", it is a little bit more
user friendly than "make config", almost as good as "make xconfig".

Sorry I don't have any answer to your question, but I have a piece of
advice that might help you to write questions in a way that will give
answers. Stop crossposting to several newsgroups expecting others taking
their time to read your message and write a reply if you think that it
is kind of a pain searching and reading their replies in a newsgroup.
Newsgroups are working because people does not only look for answers for
their own questions but while searching for these answers they take
their time to answer other people questions.
If you still think it is to hard to search newsgroups you should try a
powerful tool like dejanews. If you find that newsgroups isn't your way
to get information there is a commercial howto, it might help you to
find a consultant that is willing to help you with personal emails or
maybe even a home visit to track down problems.

Anything SCSI-based (well, at least anything SCSI-2 compliant. Older
drives may be problematic) should work fine, as long as your SCSI host
adapter is installed and working OK.
I have no clue about tape drives using other interfaces (like ATAPI,
parallel-port, floppy, or proprietary interfaces.) I wouldn't even
bother trying one of them.
My Aiwa 4mm DAT drive works great with no special drivers. I control it
with mt and use tar for my backups (using the /dev/nst0 device).

Thanks! I didn't know about that option. (That's what I get for not

Well, I finally got it working. I used the XF86Config that came with
tpdualscan and hacked the end off of it. I put that on the end of the
redhat 6.0 XF86Config and hacked off it's monitor and devices section.
Tpdualscan -d, X -probeonly, tpdualscan -d, startx now works. I also had to
do 'xset s off' after X loaded since the screen was blanking out every 2
secs.
